Re: Spaying!
I always advise to spay 3 months after first season. The reasoning for this is that spaying before CAN result sometimes in incontinence problems. NOT always. Different vets do advise different things though.

Re: Spaying!
If you have a really good vet whom you trust, you should listen to their advice. Both of my vets have stated that a bitch does not need a first season before being spayed.

If you cannot trust a vet, who can you trust, but that's another question!
